- Is the army woke AF ? How's the Ukraine's Counter Offensive going? What about Trumps secret documents? we solve the worlds problems like a couple of lower enlisted dummys.
wokeism in the military is a major problem especially within the pentagon us department of defense. general milley got in trouble for it recently. marxist idealogy could be destroying the us army. ukraines counter offensive might be in trouble with m2 bradley getting destoryed on video. russian forces and their defensive in souther ukraine might be too strong. trumps marlago documents got him in hot water. those top secret classified docuemnts on allies nuclear capabilities were in his house.

The military isn't woke enough. We need blue haired storm brigades. Problem solved. Check out Patrick Baker's video on NATO's secret army against Putin: th-cam.com/video/ih8-HP6IGR0/w-d-xo.html
Ok cool
Where are my combat tomboys, goddamnit!?
Oh and keep in mind that POTUS has the authorization to decide what is classified and declassified.
Compare that to Senator and VP Joe Biden who removed significantly more classified documents during his time as Senator and VP, despite having NO authority to do so... AND storing them strewn all around his garage (with the door open), next to his hot wheels...
Oh and Hilary "Bleach Bit" Clinton, who intentionally skirted around rules and regulations concerning email serves etc. so that she could hide her corruption and crime, AND disregarded a subpoena to hand over her emails, by erasing servers and having phones smashed with hammers. Things got interesting when the police found Clinton emails on Anthony Weiner's computers (his wife was Hilary's assistant).
Fun fact. China hacked Hilary's emails, so who knows how much compromising material they have on her. Also, as result of the hack, China was able to identify and kill pretty much every US intelligence asset operating in China, which they did over like, the course of a day, and everyone was shocked at how they did this... it was 'cause they had all her emails.
@@joe6167you should really just read the indictment. It doesn't take long!
I don’t think USA tricked Russia into attacking Ukraine. If anything Russia was desperate to get of hold of Crimea because of never freezing port of Sevastopol. And when they managed it back in 2014 with no problem…. (Bla bla about NATO not reacting) they (Nikolai Patrushev and putler ) decided it would be easy fight. Well they committed to fighting and now they can’t find way out. Maybe internal fighting (prigožin,….) will give them excuse to ,, concentrate,, on problems in Russia, fingers crossed 🤞
If a president breaks the law and is convicted by a jury of his peers they should be held accountable no matter what party they’re from.
100% agree. I am upset Hunter got off light and I do not want trump to get away with holding onto war documents and showing them to ppl without clearance. It should not be based on party on power everyone should be held accountable evenly.
@@kevincolwell3066kushner has got off extremely light. He made billions as a white house staffer in private discussions with Suadis.
@@kevincolwell3066proof? I tried of the fake news already.
@@kevincolwell3066 1000% they both did wrong and should both be held accountable lol so stupid when people start fckin screeching in defense of them because HURRRR DURRR MAH PARTY!!!!! it's like noone gives a shit they broke the fucking law lol
@@kevincolwell3066 Hunter got off light because of a plea deal, he was never convicted by a jury, thats the whole point of a plea deal.
Trump would be getting off light too but his ego is too high for him to admit guilt
The argument of wasting time is the weakest argument ever considering how much free time soldiers have.
Stand by to stand by.
Hurry up! Wait.
Completely agree. Arguments like that just shows that these people have no idea what they are talking about
Great podcast. But I disagree about one thing. It's not that they took the documents, it's that when the feds wanted them back, they didn't cooperate. People mess up all the time but if you come clean you won't go to jail.
This is especially true for political leaders. Nixon wasn't going to be impeached for his goons deciding to break into the Democratic HQ.he was going to be impeached for trying to cover it up. He should have thrown the guys under the bus and went on his merry way.
Oh how innocent.
thanks for the feedback, we were mainly just riffing out that issue so theres definitely a lot of details in there that we missed and things we're not aware of
100%. I had the same opinion as expressed in the podcast about a week ago, but I've since realised that Trumps case is different because he isn't cooperating now that the problem has been discovered.
@@whossname4399didn’t he cooperate until he was charged?
These are terrific conversations. Thanks for the effort y'all put into this pod. Also appreciate the work to make it clean.
"appreciate the work to make it clean" they fucking hate it lol they've literally said multiple times it's only because of the giant PC/demonetization hammer you'll have your fucking head/channel smashed in with if you do anything other than borderline baby talk... "unalive yourself" etc
I really liked this podcast. Cappy you brought up a very interesting point about the Chinese and Soviet militaries not having NCOs. I was an Officer serving in 1st Cav during OIF 09-10 and I could not imagine being a Platoon leader without the NCOs that I had as squad leaders, platoon leaders and team leaders. It boggles my mind how any army could go to war without them. Thank you enlisted folk for serving, it was an honor to serve with soldiers like you.
The best way to learn about politics is to watch the show 'Yes Minister' and 'Yes Prime ministers'. British comedy shows. A lot about politicians and the public servants. When the ministers go home they have a large box of documents to work with. The really important papers are placed at the bottom of the pile.
“Politicization”
Lol Cappy drinking out of a wine glass is pretty funny…also hold it by the stem my dude it’ll make you look fancy
give it a couple of swirls for good measure right haha
Rosé?
This conversation was a great microcosm of the broader ‘wokism’ debate because I’m 20 minutes in and I still don’t know either of your definitions of ‘wokism’.
16:38 We were having this discussion a while ago, we need more cyber security nerds and drone operators, they don't NEED to be super fit, hardcore 200 pounds of sweating muscle, they need to know C++ and how to use a controller... The people with these skills aren't attracted to being screeched at all day. So now we have a MAJOR shortage of these professions we desperately need to stay competitive.
There's a workforce shortage nationwide if the talking heads are to be believed so it's not surprising the military is also affected
I used to think the same thing, until I saw a report that a Russian officer died of a heart attack from being overweight in Ukraine. Health is very important no matter what you do.
@@MrBassmann15health, yes.
Being able to run 10 miles with a heavy pack is about more than just health.
@@Justanotherconsumer Nobody is asking the nerds to ruck 10 miles. Air Force PT standards are lax…I’m sure Space Force is the same. Air Force controls the cyber world so those guys and gals are fine. P/T tests are pencil-whipped as well in the Air Force. It’s all about the Airmen to maintain their health.
@@MrBassmann15 Sure, but your cyber security computer wonks won't be 'overweight in Ukraine', they'll be in an office in Canberra, gotta move with the times and stay competitive. Why would I want to do that shit when I can get three times the money for a shit ton less work in the private sector? ( as evidence by me, working in the private sector for a LOT more money, better conditions and less dumb shit. )
If anyone wants to protect their country and be set for life, be ready to suffer. That's all. It's not hard.
Really valuable conversation
59:14, They tried to get the documents back without charging him over the course of a year. He refused to give them back. They gave him multiple opportunities to do so. That’s what makes this different to all the other instances of retaining information they weren’t supposed to.
I think he even initially lied about having the top secret documents at first before eventually admitting he had them, which is when he started saying he’d “declassified” them with his magical declassifying mind powers because he knew he’d been caught. All he had to do was give it back and he would have gotten the same treatment everybody else did.
Oh. Well that makes sense why they raided him then.
Not true. He had proper lawful custody and was coordinating with a hostile politicized agency that hated him and colluded with co conspirators to frustrate a legal process and use that time delay as fake evidence of Trumps unwillingness to bow to a subordinate bureaucracy. Wake up. Or go refresh your blue hair dye…who cares…
"I think he even initially lied about having the top secret documents at first before eventually admitting he had them, which is when he started saying he’d “declassified” them with his magical declassifying mind powers because he knew he’d been caught."
...This a bad time to point out that 42nd got into hot water because he had *_classified_* files in his sock drawer (not even kidding there) and even eventually went to court over it only for the court to rule that Presidents are legally allowed to keep any documents - even classified ones - as per the Presidential Records Act?
I hate to disappoint you, but legally - with legal precedent - 45th violated no law.
As far as trumps motivation for stealing classified docs … think golden shower
Maybe future video about small arms caliber armor piercing ammo like tungsten & depleted uranium?
These podcasts are great. It's not necessarily always correct on details but its not meant to be. Just two dudes having a fun chat about our crazy world while having a drink. It's great.
I think its especially great because it also shows that normal people(non-experts) can have reasonable and level-headed discussions and conclusions which is refreshing. Nowadays, most average discussion devolves into some conspiratorial nonsense, biased, and name calling. Frequently, we have to turn to experts for constructive arguments, yet we are still missing the opinions of the average person. We obviously have ourselves, but its hard to find reasonable opinions elsewhere
I’ll need to try having coffee and a big glass of wine at the same time. 😅
Love the discussion. Please, note the audio is out of synch with the video - who's really speaking at what point. But, if viewer doesn't try to watch the video - simply listening to the content is fine.
Ok I thought it was me
wut??? where i didn't notice that at all and have been watching it pretty consistently for 25mins now
17:25 Lmfao...
I'm reminded of one of my Drill Instructors explaining how they considered our (the recruits') respective mentalities: "If I were to put a recruit in a padded cell, naked, with nothing but two steel ball bearings, and then left the recruit(s) alone for less than a minute; When the Drill Instructor returned, they would see that you (the recruit) would have broken one of the ball bearings, and lost the other."
And if they were Marines, somehow found a 3rd and impregnated it 😅.
National Security should have No Political Affiliation. The main operation is to Secure the Nation from Foreign and Domestic Terrorism or interference from within the system that may impose harm to the American Populace...usvf
Greetings from Colorado! This was interesting. I think you need a little bit more structure in order to allow you to consistently be conversational-two guys in a bar after 18 holes or three sets of tennis. Casual. I'm looking forward to how this evolves. Break a leg!
Does anyone know if this is available as a RSS feed traditional podcast? I can't seem to find it. And I don't want to lose this to the TH-cam algorithms
I’m stupid, and this gave me a new perspective, solid stuff.
Really good work, great discussion and solid takes on some difficult topics. Not so solid, WTH are those beverage choices?! Is that white wine with a dunkin carame syrupl coffee? Pat's drinking strawberry lemonade. Get it together.
wait, everyone doesnt drink water and juice from mason jars, jugs and fancy wine glasses?
The US did not invade North Vietnam. US bombed it but there was not a push into NV.
but had supply line disrupting forces there.
What would you guys think about using the CV90:s covering against lowflying choppers(KA-52:s) that took out the Bradleys. The Bofors 40mm 3-p proximityfused would have been able to give SHORAD and probably saved alot of expensive equipment. Sweet podcast by the way. Hi from Sweden🇸🇪🇺🇸
What you are saying makes a lot of sense and would be a good idea IF the KA52's were operating closer to the front. Those choppers were 11k or more behind the lines as their ATGM's have the ability to strike UA armor at a very long distance and even the German Gephards wouldn't be able to hit them.
Since the Bradly's nor the Leopard 2's have any type of radar, they were probably not even aware they were being hit by aviation assets. You can't shoot something you can't see? I doubt that even MANPAD's would have worked. Moving their intermediate anti air defense assets closer to the front lines may be the only option?
That may create more problems than it solves though, as it would make it an easier target for the enemy and stopping drones and missiles are perhaps more of a priority at this point. I hope they come up with a solution ASAP!
@@superdog1964 Yes i agree the range of the Bofors L70 is somwere around ~4000 metres. In Sweden were there are hills and valleys wich the CV9040 were made to fight in rarely would need to make long range shots and could hide and let the lowflying choppers come close using terrain "pits" forcing the enemy close. The terrain in Ukraine seems very unforgiving, its mostly flat, rarely any cover is avalible. Without air support or capable SHORAD in situations like that, its gonna be a shitshow. But atleast alot of the crew survived due to the West actually creates vevhicles that are well protected, valuying the lives of the soldiers. Just get the combined arms strategy perfected and this will likely happen a lot less often.
They need to give Ukraine the longer range missiles and ok to strike up to 25km into Russia only military targets. Else it’ll be just like Afghanistan/Pakistan Border.
@@Len_M. agreed, havent they allready recived ATACMS? But yes give them some of their own medicine!
@@Len_M.So far the Russians seem perfectly content to fight themselves across the border 😂.
also why we have a civilian commander in chief as opposed to a military commander in chief
I can't find the audio pod.. could someone leave a link Cheers
The problem is not trump brought the docs home. It was legal when he WAS STILL the president, but not after he stoped being a president and did not turn back the documents when requested by the government.
And when he obstructed the government attempts to return them. Mike Pence and Biden both cooperated and honestly I hope there's a change of process going forward to prevent security threats like this going forward.
@@granatmofyeah me too. Our counterintel guys REALLY need to change their standards & practices. The fact that SO many documents were/are out in the wild and unsecured is an embarrassment
Did you read what the Judges in Clintons and Obamas court hearings said?
I thought the Bradley's in those pictures hit mines along with the leopard tanks. It's the guy in front hits a mine. Why do the rest of them rush up there and get blown up too? I don't understand I was a Sonar technician in the navy. Could somebody explain that please
the other Bradleys came up to rescue the stranded soldiers hiding behind the disabled vehicles from fire.
It was mines, artillery fire, and probably also rifle fire. Primarily mines. No idea if arty came before or after but based on the mix of videos, there was likely an artillery strike while they were advancing. But none where the main column got stranded because there's no craters nearby. They had two BRM-2 mine plow to clear the path but they both probably was hit by ATGM or RPGs causing the entire column to halt. And the second Bradley retreating then hit a mine.
Mine plows aren't 100% at clearing mines, demining is a multi-step process and very complex. Most modern military prefer to use MCLCs which are these rockets that pull a long tube of explosives to detonate mines as its primary clearing method. Dozers and rollers are like a reassurance for leading a column in case the initial methods missed anything. You also want to do this under smoke coverage with enemy suppressed by artillery fire. All in all, Ukraine lacked sufficient demining assets and artillery cover in this assault. They also lacked SHORADS and SPAAG to counter attack helicopters which we seen footage of them hitting Ukrainian columns.
You guys do spotify? It's where I consume most of my podcasts during my solo hours at work.
No REAL MEN LEFT.
I haven't watched the whole thing yet but we had a situation when we were deployed where a guy from another company actually drew his weapon on one of our black soldiers and we were all pissed about it. I don't recall what, if anything, happened to the other soldier though.
"blue on blue" fire.. LMAO
Idk I think Milley is a problem. He did a lot of interviews with reporters talking very negatively about Trump including telling people in the pentagon that he is in charge and not Trump specifically, suggesting he would start a war with Iran to stay president. Plus, he and Austin threw Biden under the bus when the US chaotically withdrew from Afghanistan. There were some other things but I cant recall what all is public information
Trump is the problem, not Milley
@@simper-fortis lol, bot spam, can you not?
Miley really pissed me off June 2020 with his walk to Lafayette square. Doing that appeared to demonstrate the JCS' support for the ongoing crackdowns on protesters.
He earned that back with how he handled the months after, up to amd including:
Preventing a war with Iran
Keeping the DoD politically neutral
Pushing back against Esper when he started describing American Cities as "the battlespace" when Trump was pushing to have US troops on American streets, busting American heads.
Keeping the Chinese from panicking and starting WWIII when we were going theough an attempted coup.
Managing the Post-Trump era, and US engagement with NATO, non-NATO allies, and the Ukrainians.
I think he's a decent man, a solid leader, and has risen admirably to the occasion.
@@JB-pu8ik i don't think that Layayette square thing went down how you think it did. Essentially there was a curfew in place because the church was torched the night before. The controversy is that Bill Barr had pushed them to clear the square a little early. Unfortunately different government officials are used by presidents constantly for photo ops, this is just one rare occasion the media had a problem with it or perhaps went too far by making them walk around lol. I dont know what you mean by "preventing a war with Iran+China". You know that is suggesting he ordered an attacked on Iran+China which is not true and very inappropriate of you to spread such misinformation. Deconfliction is common in the US government, to prevent accidents, and because it allows the US military to poke and prod other countries such as Chinese airspace. I think he has harmed the image of the US military by appearing partisan, he knew exactly what he was doing by butting in to a question asked to Lloyd Austin about Critical Race Theory being taught at West Point, he knew exactly what he was doing and it was for politics. The fact he did all those interviews after Trump left office was all for politics. The fact he threw Biden under the bus for the chaotic retreat from Afghanistan was politics. He didnt have to do any of these things, but he did because he is a politician more than a general and that is a problem if you want to appear as non-partisan
@@ArchesBro I'm well aware that lafayette square wasn't what I thought at the time. That being said, I was commenting starting with what I thought of him at the time.
I think Trump was pushing for *something* towards the end of his term to distract from his other issues. And I'm fairly certain that professionals in the DoD, including Miley, helped prevent a war with Iran, which would have been just the thing for sagging poll numbers. (/s)
I also know that Miley was on the phone with his Chinese counterparts who were quietly going apeshit on Jan 6th because they thought we were having a coup amd were going on alert, as they had no clue what would happen next.
He told them that we were not going to attack, and that we were getting our shit together. Was that technically overstepping his authority? Sure. Am I glad he did it? Also sure.
As to the post Trump stuff, I didn't think there was anything wrong with his congressional testimony. I think he gave a reasonable and honest answer to questions regarding a fraught issue. If we're talking about the hearings related to extremism in the military in 2021.
Is Miley a uniformed politician? Yup. He's a GO and the head of the JCS. Of course he is. Did the DoD fuck up the withdrawl from Afghanistan? Oh yes, yes they did. Are they still fucking it up by not putting a greater emphasis on extracting our terps? Yup.
That being said; on the whole, we could have done worse for this era. We can politley agree to disagree however.
Great Podcast. Americans need real conversations like this. The divide is 100% real. When we need to come together!
You should be concerned that you're so eager to "come together" with the traitorous fascists currently threatening the entire concept of America as a nation.
You should be especially concerned that you needed to be fucking told that.
Go read MLK's thoughts on "white moderates" like yourself. Spoiler; not a fan. In fact, he called you and your cowardly lot a greater threat to civil rights than the outspoken bigots.
Are these podcasts available as audio only on any podcast service?
why???? just literally put it on your phone, lock the screen, press the home button, and press play lol or on PC just put it in a different tab and minimize it o.O
Good talk Sempre Fi - be woke was a term the girls used to alert some bad guy(s) are in the group. Street corner talk, circa 1963
all i know is if america is a "woke" army and russia is a "non-woke" army, ill take the woke army everytime. in fact a woke army crushes a non-woke army
34:56 Flag all of the Fs outta Everybody, why don't you, Bradley gunner...🤣
You guys should do a podcast with the guys from the unsubscribed podcast, all former military. At least get the fat electrician on there, he’s so knowledgeable on the military and military history and he’s funny as hell.
Quackbang out!😂
If I could be 19 again, OMFG. Every female within 250 miles would be pregnant.
Cappy, one thing I really appreciate about you is that you take a look at both sides, *but with a critical lens.* I don't think you did that second part with woke in this episode.
6 million man-hours is what, an hour or 2 a year per member? I spent more time picking leaves outta a gravel pit than that. Acting like that one or two classes is getting in the way of training is something a person who's never even seen a military base would think, and I hold you to a much higher standard than that!
Acting like people will be demoted for saying the wrong thing feels off too. No one is gonna get busted down for thinking taxes should be lower, or throwing a couple spicy memes in the squad group chat. You might catch a counseling if it's something that crosses a line, but it would require some serious effort, consistency, and negative effect to require a demotion. Joking "damn Morales I thought you'd be better at this your family has a history of getting over walla" at PT is a very different thing than putting "I think all Mexicans are evil rapists and should leave or we'll kill them" Every time someone vaguely brown does a crime in the country.
The argument about preferential promotion is the only real valid argument, but your friend (forgot his name sorry!) Correctly pointed out that it would require an overhaul of the entire promotion system, which isn't being seriously suggested by anyone.
Politicization of the military is only really happening because of the right wing backlash to woke concepts. There's nothing political about the FACT that certain demographics typically face different/more challenges than others. Increasing the understanding of our teammates lives builds trust and understanding, which directly helps readiness.
Except in the Nasty Girls. It’s tribal as fuck and buddy boy politics exist.
This is a hot cast, you gotta promote the channel a bit more.
Also Patrick sounds like a cyborg for some reason
Pa a few quid more for better microphone. .. audio a bit tinny .. seems to be picking up on room echo.
Great pod regardless. Looking forward to more.
wut??? you guys clearly don't listen to many podcasts or streamers.... this is fucking audio gold compared to half the podcasts/shows/people out there
Remember kids, the cockpit of a F-22 identifies as a safe space.
What does hurt US military is small production capacities of heavy ammunition. Ukraine uses a lot and its scary whats gonna happen in case chubby Xi will decide to start something
Fighting Pooh is gonna be Navy first, so different tools needed.
More munitions!! Get American factories churning boys!! As a nasty girls I want industrial production up stat so I got work!!
The US has a systemic issue with their supply lines. A lot of America production capacity, you know that key element to winning WW2, has been shipped overseas. If we went to war today, it would take many years to get production up to speed. The Navy in particular is hit hard by this. Domestic shipbuilding is declining, so when the US Navy goes to order new ships, they take longer to design and build and the quality is bad resulting in brand new ships actually cracking at the seams and being decommissioned in a matter of years, not decades.
😅 love you guys specially the long Island 🏝 want to be 😆 I'm from the Bronx don't worry 😉 lmfao
wtf? the video is still available but whenever i try to go to your channel youtube gives me a 404. what happened?
5:40 Lol...True, but it was often an effective morale booster, since it made your brain snap into place again. It kills time; It breaks the monotony. It can be a good thing.
But, Dang!
Sometimes you just want to tell that person to STFU...lol
3:50 Especially in certain MOFs.
I love when anyone brings up operation northwoods the look on peoples faces is always a I don’t/ can’t accept the truth, better than that is when you warm them up with operation sea spray.
30:50 Yessir; But, when your strategy has been to flatten the city, call it a win, and keep going forward, and your strategy has been "working" for you; Then there's really no need to adapt your TTPs, right? Lol
I never served, but I did watch a TH-cam video about it. :) Keep up the great work. Nice to have a trustworthy source of info on Ukraine.
There are recruiting issues, but retention is exceeding goals easily according to a recent report. So to me that's strong evidence that older troops, who you'd think would be more anti-woke, are fine with staying in.
The background noise is the economy, though - things are cooling down so there’s not a lot of incentive to jump to the private sector.
All the good troops are already gone and the ones that are ready to get out are finishing up and walking away leavening the whole crowd their mess.
@Justanotherconsumer A good point but a few things: the army met its retention goals in 2022 and 2021 as well as this year. Economy was still running hot for part of that. Even parts that deploy much more often like army air defense have 100%+ retention. The military personnel interviewed suggest it has to do with allowing more flexibility in where you are based. Which ever it is, the army is doing studies to determine what are the most important factors influencing retention.
retention if you're far invested is a little different to walk away from but morals and principles are great arguments for staying and fighting unless the career dollar is the prevailing force.
@@Primordial... unfortunately army pay, especially at the lower ranks, is low enough and cost of living is now high enough that if you want a family, you can’t feed them pride and honor and patriotism.
Money doesn’t motivate people much, but lack of money does, and the point at which more money ceases to be an issue is well above the pay grade of the boots on the ground.
That's a problem. It's a major symptom of past events. GoP needs to be reformed.
"A house divided cannot stand."

When did he get out?
Hey, Cappy in Israel isn't the most compliment officer in command of the unit not the highest ranking officer?
Saweeet. Bunker Boys are back.
If segregated units (or military literally being seperared) didn't break us up outrage politics isn't either.
Yeah recruit them Wokies and send-em to Ukraine
Guys, there were TWO Ukrainian offensives last year. There was Kherson offensive, that wasn't going so lightly fast as the east one. And it was, at least according to Russians, very costly for Ukrainians - well, if anybody takes Russian claims as anything other than at least 5 times bigger then reality.
Anyone who use wone unironicly is the most unserious person ever
20 years in the military and "woke-ness" is really not a problem as much as the culture backlash. On the ground level, what is most important is developing yourself as the best Soldier, Sailor, Airman, or Marine you can possibly be and supporting your team(s) the best way you can. That is first, second, third priority... and was and is the priority for the past, present, and future. if you believe otherwise and prioritize being a culture warrior then you would be better off in one of the mall-ninja militias around the country. When you are getting medicine from the pharmacy, flying on an aircraft, or fixing a problem with your pay, I guarantee you will be more concerned with the technicians working at the pharmacy, prepping the engines, or reviewing your allotments be proficient at their jobs and not whether they are transgender, voted for the other party, or supported the right amendment.
I agree with letting in anyone who meets the standards. But don't push it as the selling point or endorse punishment of wrong think.
You’re correct, but also I think you missed the actual concerns.
You’re right, I care much more about whether someone has my back and can perform their tasks with competence than what they call themselves.
What I am actually concerned about is whether dollars that could be spent training up those competencies or creating new capabilities might instead go towards funding DEI training or that a capable officer might get passed up for a position/promotion because their views are more socially conservative (or vice versa).
@@norad_clipsno officer is going to be passed up for promotion if they don't really like gay people but it's their own business to do whatever they want with another consenting adult. They might get passed up if they think that every gay person is a child predator who's intent on destroying the Western world. The first is a conservative position, the second is just bigotry that hurts readiness
@@norad_clipsyeah yeah, we've heard this stupid argument from social concervatives for decades, but when it comes time to put up or shut up they raise the national debt by trillions, suspend the debt ceiling, continue sinking trillions into unauditable defense spending, and then try to go after Medicare and social security.
In short, conservatives only care when resources are being spent on something they don't like, and have yet to prove to anyone that they can reallocate said resources effectively, or even have the desire to do so, rather than just cutting funding from things they don't like
Is there an RSS feed I can add to my podcast app?
This was great. Definitely will continue to listen
also i think you still need to put up the sound stuff on your walls even if its a podcast and not a regular content video
If all these politicians begin to be indicted once out of office for having classified documents isn't that a good thing for our national security as a deterrent from politicians being careless in the future?
I mean they should be held accountable. I think the main reason why it feels politically motivated is the double standard, not that it's a wrongful indictment.
But Trump also tried to cover it up and obstruct the investigators while all other cases had the public official cooperate. It's like getting pulled over for speeding. You can accept the ticket, or make a run for it. The latter gets you in way deeper into trouble which is what Trump has done.
WWWhat? Ignorance is NOT bliss ! I am shocked, shocked. The Russians, love their conscripts, and aren't they doing well in Ukraine? Whereas the American military crushes all before it, motivation, education, integration and training. Knowledge and enlightenment, it's a beautiful thing!
I think they were older Bradley's with reactive armor removed.
@39:00 they're an independent country and are allowed to try to join NATO if they want.
The military has never been separate from politics.
You read any strategy book you will see statements that read ala "The primary goal of the military is to take political goals and make them into military doable tasks" or similar. Point is, the military has mostly held conservative values before and conservatives have seen no issues with that, but as soon as more liberal views are also tolerated. Suddenly there is an issue. Conservatives are hypocrites and every 6 months they make up a new word to deflect from real causes. Be it "war on xmas", "woke" or similar. Heck, most people cant even define woke because in reality woke just means anything a conservative dislikes, because they are the only ones using the term.
an officer shooting their troops? That's bad. Very bad.
There are 1.4 million members of the U.S. military. That averages out to be four hours of training for each member of the service. A majority of that training is most likely computer-based. If you have ever spent time in the military, you know, that shit gets pencil-whipped real quick. So what are we talking about here?
Politics. It sounds like a big number.
they said the same thing about the Integration of the Army
wut..... this is a 1 hour video what the fuck are you even talking about
And tbh, I think it's better for you to be able to hold your president to the same standard according to the law, even it would be painful initially.
Heck yeah. Everyone on the left is super into prosecuting all criminal politicians.
Not putting the President on a pedestal is a good thing.
Way too easy to end up with a monarchy, Russia’s almost there.
DUNKS
1:00:10 G*ddamnit, Cappy!
Do push-ups!!
Reading the opposition's books is plain sense. I was doing that in the 70's and 80's as a corporal. Sun Tzu says Know your Enemy.
Must have watched “ Renaissance Man” prior to enlisting? ? ?
👍
Alot of rich kids? Hahaha the rich don't send their kids to war, only the poor.
LOVE this new show! Going to tell all my friends to check it out! But can you please start cursing again!??! For fuck sake! Lots of other successful TH-camrs cuss all the time?!?
PS
I see that YT Play Button on self in the background..! Big congrats! I started watching your main channel when you had under 100k subs. You killing it man! Keep up the great content!
Support our troops!
No, let’s make fun of them for not being the same troops that we were when I was in!
Getting memed upon builds character.
I have friends that thought about reupping and then they found out how its not worth it unless you are gay, a minority or a woman to get promotions. NONE have gone back in.
Its hard to define what is WOKENESS......
woke
The act of being very pretentious about how much you care about a social issue
Yeah most people don't care about parking spaces for families with disabled pets. I wish they were woke like me.
Gee we know who Cappy votes for....
The main issue of the "woke" military is that in the last four years, it has created a force of victims. I deal with all four branches fresh out of basic training and this is the least combat ready military I've seen. These kids come into tech school with no bearing or discipline and when, god forbid, someone tries to correct them, they claim to be targeted in someway which is then reinforced by Command. Now you have NCOs who refuse to make decisions out of fear of not being supported or undermined. All this has made for weak NCOs and in my opinion, Senior Leaders who have lost sight of the mission of our military.
Honest questions: Do you think there are other reasons and factors that might influence how combat ready the US military is? And couldn't the last thing you said also apply to people in the military who are "anti-woke" and that this kind of discrimination goes both ways (I don't know what part of the military considers themselves as conservative, but I imagine it's a substantial amount)?
@@nelsonmeier7861 Fair questions. Without a doubt, it all comes down to recruiting. All branches are having difficulty filling their recruitment goals. This is especially true for the Army. Senior leadership has decided to step back discipline in hopes of using that to attract potential recruits who are undecided on enlisting. As for the "anti-woke", I don't think the NCO's view themselves as much as discriminated against. They resent to have to follow orders that hinder their task to make sure these young troops and trained properly and combat ready.
Man hours? MAN hours?!?! Do better, average infantryperson.
… puh-li-tuh-suh-zey-shuhn …
Lmao 1st bn being forgetable good one.
I think an average militaryman should do construction work. It is a great capability to have in peace time, war time, and personal carrier. A lot of military facilities in the States are in disrepair and the militarymen stationed there do nothing about them. If they are ordered to learn and repair those facilities, it saves the taxpayers a lot of money, improves the health of the militarymen stationed, and cultivates useful skills for those militarymen for the civilian life to come. The Roman soldiers were both fighters and builders. Imagine some troops are deployed to an active warzone for defensive task. Some of them can fight, while others can build defensive fortifications. That's exactly what the Romans did. They built fortifications or siege equipment under enemy fire.
This Gunnie sounds a bit like Mr Gormsby. If you haven’t seen the New Zealand comedy 7 periods with Mr Gormsby you really should
I can address this directly, if I can do so anonymously. I will say we have a mission, and this sideshow is BS
Fix your audio guys otherwise very entertaining and informative podcast.
we're going to have that sorted out by next time !
@@TaskPurpose1stSquadi would say the mics on the shirts is a good start.
the fuck are you guys bitching about???? this shit sounds fantastic compared to ALOT of other podcasts and creators... try listening to someone like louey7 or even a mega channel like someordinarygamers or something and THEN bitch about audio quality..... gonna bitch so much they get new mics and then risk ending up w worse quality because 2 guys w little/no tech experience start dicking with it.....
@@TaskPurpose1stSquad don't worry about it imo, people literally being audiophiles and bitching about LITERAL NOTHING, you'll get these kinds of shlubs crying about REEEE DA AUDIO CONSTANTLY on youtube and twitch, just ignore them and move on unless it's 50%+ of the comments or you watch the video back and there's an OBVIOUS issue
❤❤❤❤❤
7:53 seconds in they say Mr. Milley talks about CRT. He defends it in the USA. Not talking about it being a USSR/Russia/China doctrine. Losing ALL respect for these individules. Not seen all video so hoping for more.
on the logistic winning wars, russia is winning the ammo war, according to officials in nato countries.
on the us decimating russia, would that be possible without air supremacy? and from where would the us strike? if the us and russia went to war it would most likely end in a stalemate due to the logistics of being on the other side of the ocean.
the reason why russia didn't easily roll into ukraine is because it's huge and they had the second largest army in europe (not counting russia)
how does s-400 and s-500 stack against f-22 and f-35? the f-117 was shot down in yugoslavia
The Armenian and Azeri militaries from the components of the local Soviet military. The officers largely went to Azerbaijan and the men mostly enrolled with Armenia.
That is just one way a military can split. Among the many ways military and civilian components can come together to dominate a society there are an equal number of concerning ways that military and civilian components can break apart.
You were so close on the trump stuff. They did tell him to knock it off multiple times and unlike all the others you listed he still wouldn’t. They finally had to decide that he had to “find out”
I want to go the SOF route when I enlist so I’d imagine they’d be less likely to care about woke agenda in that tight knit community
SOF is not the route you wanna go if you want to avoid wokeness lmao
@@yowman98 why so?
@@ubcroel4022 because SOF wants people who can think critically and act in ways that won't alienate local populations. You're also not gonna get selected if you don't work well with others, and being anti woke is a great way of telling on yourself that you can't empathize with people who are different.
Why doesn’t he get it?
16 distorted armor is unacceptable for the US, but when was the last time we went up against a near peer adversary without air superiority? Our losses would be the same if we did.
I don't really laugh at anything harder than this. I LOVE IT. :-)
